Summary
SiC/graphene nanocomposites had been quickly synthesized by hexamethyldisilane and methane decomposition in atmospheric plasmas. Outcomes point out that the merchandise with out methane addition had been SiC/C composites composed of SiC nanoparticles with dimension of 5–30 nm and carbon nanoshells with few layers. With the addition of methane, graphene nanosheets with 1–8 layers generated, they usually hooked up with SiC nanoparticles and carbon nanoshells, forming SiC/graphene nanocomposites with point-surface construction. The formation of graphene nanosheets improved the microwave absorption means, and the optimum reflection loss approached −65.7 dB at 11 GHz with an absorber thickness of 1.6 mm. Electromagnetic parameters indicated the bettering microwave absorption was related to the improved polarization/conduction loss because of the formation of point-surface construction.
